Nomad DAO
Proposal overview
NOMAD DAO
• Mandates
Gather. Ground. Create.
• Overview
There is a core group of extremely talented and well-connected crypto natives that hops around from conference to conference in search of new friends, co-founders, and opportunities. Nomad DAO is dedicated to filling a fundamental gap for this group of people by providing them with sponsorship and a home.
The group of nomads that is present at nearly every conference interface with more crypto-curious beginners and intermediates globally than probably any other single group of people,
There is a critical problem in the crypto space currently, which is access & availability of knowledge. So much of what is known about crypto exists only in the heads of people who have been actively building or working in the space for a long time, and the traditional problem-solving method (googling) often does not work.
Nomad DAO’s goal is to bring together all the people in web3 who have a unique set of skills and knowledge and provide them with the tools so that they can publish content for others to learn from on a Learn2Earn platform.
• Description
Gather
A core group of 15 conference hoppers will begin working to find and sponsor builders who are willing and able to create tutorials in the spaces they are experts in, and in the languages that they are best at.
Ground
Upon landing at a conference, Nomad DAO members will have access to a house where they can work, sleep, and hang out at to determine gaps in available knowledge and create tutorials and resources for people to use in perpetuity.
Create
Some of the best solutions in web3 are dreamt up in places where access to standard assets and financial tools are prohibited or hard to access. Nomads will work in different places around the world to share their knowledge and provide the global crypto community with the tools they would need to tackle problems, which might not be evident to everyone.
• Budget
Project Y funding will initially be spend on becoming present as a DAO within the Web3 space. We will attend conferences and rent houses with the goal of bringing together talented builders to create tutorials that are most needed for various protocols and dapps.
Funding for these projects will be secured by working with these protocols and dapps to dream up related starter projects that would interest a wide variety of people. Funding will be paid out as follows:
40% will be paid out in the form of tokens to people who complete these tutorials
30% will be paid out to the creator of the tutorial
30% will go back into the treasury to fund future houses and projects.
Revenue will also be generated by affiliating with tutorial platforms such as pointer.gg and slip.so to funnel learners onto those platforms as well.
The budget will also be used to partner closely with other DAO communities such as FWB, Her DAO, Blu3 DAO and others with the goal of establishing Nomad DAO as a tight-knit group of global builders.
- Milestones
Nomad DAO’s goal will be to create 50 tutorials and 1000 tutorial completions by the end of Q3 2022, relating to protocols that need them the most.
